Race through stages inspired by the video game Sonic the Hedgehog built by flipping through a deck of cards. But watch out for the bad guys or you could be eliminated from the race. Players will take their chances by deciding before each round of cards if they want to stay in the race or withdraw. If you withdraw, you get all the rings and bonus cards revealed so far in the stage. Continue the race and potentially gain even more rings and bonuses, but risk losing a life when a second villain card is revealed.
Players will have two cards in their hand, one to show they are continuing the race and one to say they are withdrawing. On each turn, all players still in the race will secretly choose a card, which they will place face down on the table. Once all players have made their choice, the next card in the deck is turned over and added to the 'trail' of cards on the table. If two cards of the same pattern are in the deck when it is turned over, all remaining players lose one life token (they have three) and a new round begins. The game is played over five rounds in total. When players choose to retire, they collect all the ring tokens present on the course at that time and keep them for the end of game scoring.
Contents of the box : 12 character cards, 18 ring cards, 12 enemy cards, 5 bonus cards, 102 tokens, 1 rule book.
